XmStringConcatAndFree(library call)									       XmStringConcatAndFree(library call)

NAME

       XmStringConcatAndFree -- A compound string function that appends one string to another and frees the original strings

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmString XmStringConcatAndFree(
       XmString s1,
       XmString s2);

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringConcatAndFree  copies s2 to the end of s1 and returns a copy of the resulting compound string. The original strings are freed.  The
       function will allocate space to hold the returned compound string.  The application is responsible for managing the allocated  space.   The
       application can recover the allocated space by calling XmStringFree.

       s1	 Specifies the compound string to which a copy of s2 is appended

       s2	 Specifies the compound string that is appended to the end of s1

       The  XmStringConcatAndFree  function  works  like the XmStringConcat function, except that it frees the s1 and s2 strings, and is therefore
       more efficient. You should use XmStringConcatAndFree instead of XmStringConcat if you want s1 and s2 to be freed afterwards.

RETURN

       Returns a new compound string.

NAME

       XmString -- Data type for a compound string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

DESCRIPTION

       XmString  is the data type for a compound string.  Compound strings consist of a sequence of components, including, but not limited to, the
       following:

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_LAYOUT_POP

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_DIRECTION

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_LAYOUT_PUSH

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_CHARSET

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_FONTLIST_ELEMENT_TAG

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_LOCALE

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_LOCALE_TEXT

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAG

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TEXT

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_END

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_BEGIN

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_END

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN

	  o  XmSTRING_COMPONENT_WIDECHAR_TEXT

       and also a rendition tags table, text, and text component.  When a compound string is displayed, the rendition tags and the  direction  are
       used to determine how to display the text.

       Calling	XtGetValues for a resource whose type is XmString yields a copy of the compound string resource value.	The application is respon-
       sible for using XmStringFree to free the memory allocated for the copy.

       Please see the XmStringComponentType reference page for more detail about compound string components, and for a description of the order in
       which the components should appear in a compound string.  Refer to the XmRenderTable reference page for a description of the algorithm that
       associates the rendition tags used for displaying a compound string text component with a rendition in a render table.
